Why is TDS such a big issue for traders in India?
TDS involves a 1% tax deduction every time an Indian trader sells their digital asset.
This TDS is then deposited on behalf of the seller.
The seller can eventually get a refund if they’re not liable to pay it as income tax.
Since high frequency traders rotate their capital at a high rate, they end up having a large tds deduction over time.
This leads to a few issues:
1. Unnecessary capital lock-in
2. Long refund cycle
3. Inability to trade for remaining months till refund is received
Since they cannot trade if the capital is locked up, this leads to less income which in turn leads to less income tax collection for the government.
So technically, tds is hurting the tax department too, since the income tax collection is lower from high frequency traders. This could have potentially been higher if the tds rate was lowered to 0.01% or completely eliminated.
Let’s hope TDS is reduced in India so that the Web3 community can succeed.

China banned #cryptocurrency activities in 2021 when #Bitcoin prices were around $40,000.
Later, around 2022, they lifted the ban when prices dropped to $16-18,000, allowing the citizens to buy at the cheapest prices.
Let's see the Timeline followed by Indian government;
➡️ 2018, the Indian government banned banks dealing in #crypto.
➡️ 2020, the Supreme Court removed the banking ban.
➡️ 2021, the Indian government initially liked the idea of cryptocurrencies and considered them as an asset class when prices were around $65,000.
➡️ 2022, they changed their mind, calling crypto a scam and linking it to potential terrorist use when prices dropped to $20,000.
They also put 30% Crypto Tax + 1% TDS on trading.
➡️ 2024, India is blocking access to major cryptocurrency exchange websites when prices are around $42,000.
It seems that they will unban these exchanges when prices will go above $100,000. 😂

The Indian government, instead of playing with the emotions of Indian #crypto community, should try to actively support the new innovation because it'll only help in India's economic growth.
Crypto opportunities in India are absolutely limitless which is why the government needs to support it, rather than have strict policies against it. The policies are the only reason why India's youth now wants to move out of country and go to #crypto friendly places.
The sooner our government realizes that #Bitcoin is the future, the better it is for us. On one hand, we see SEC approving the spot #BitcoinEFT, and in India, we have the government banning URLs of top foreign exchanges.
We should work on the #reducecryptotax movement and try to open our government's eyes on the benefits of #web3 and what they're missing out on!
Indian🇮🇳 government wants to kill Crypto industry. More than 500+ #web3 active startups in India till July 2023 and 11% of world’s #crypto, Web3 talent is in India.
However Indian government treat #cryptocurrency as a gambling ❓
And The earnings from trading, selling, or swapping #cryptocurrencies are taxed at a flat 30% and No loss set off Other than this, a TDS at 1% is also applicable on the sale of Crypto .

India deserves a fair and friendly #Crypto tax regime
Here's my #CryptoTaxWishlist 🇮🇳
- Tax crypto gains like stocks, with flexible slabs based on holding period and income level.
- 🚫 Scrap the 1% TDS on crypto transactions, or reduce it to a nominal 0.01%.
- Allow crypto investors to carry forward their losses, just like stock investors can.
